Still striking?

Aye, if you got the snake Wednesday, you shouldn't have interacted with him since letting him into his enclosure. He's still getting used to an entirely new environment.

Not that it's necessarily relevant, but I'm curious about your process to get him out when you've handled him.

I'm aware of that now. I will not interact with him till about Friday now. When I get him out I lift his log pick him up from behind and hold him. This is when he pulls his head back and then goes into striking position and strikes at anything in front of his face. He does exactly what the snake in the video does. Much like everyone else is stating I think he is just not adjusted and needs more time which is why I'm going to wait till Friday since I interrupted his adjustment period. Makes it difficult though because I will be leaving this Sunday for a trip for my job and won't be returning till the following Monday and I know no one else here will even try to interact with him. Should I attempt a feed this weekend or just wait till I return?
